Marital Misgivings
Ingmar Bergman revisits the crime-scene marriage of Johan and Marianne in 'Saraband'
By Richard von Busack
AFTER ALL the many reunions of estranged fathers and yearning sons the movies have been selling us lately, the honest mutual contempt between generations in Ingmar Bergman's newest, Saraband, acts like air conditioning on a sticky day.
Erland Josephson plays Johan, a psychologist retired to his country home. The view from the old man's window takes in the summer cottage where his son, Henrik, lives. Henrik (Börje Ahlstedt) has the face and mannerisms of a weakling. A semiemployed professor of classical music and a recent widower, he lives in troubled solitude with his daughter, Karin (Julia Dufvenius).
This standoff between father, son and daughter/granddaughter is ended by an unexpected visit from Henrik's long out-of-the-picture former spouse, Marianne (Liv Ullmann), who acts as a surrogate mother, bringing some slight clarity to Johan and his line.
Saraband is a continuation of Bergman's 1974 Scenes From a Marriage, a six-episode TV series that follows the marriage of Josephson's Johan, then 42, an associate professor of psychology, and Ullmann's Marianne, then 35, a divorce lawyer. (Johan and Marianne = John and Mary: it's meant to be that corny, even in Swedish.)
Criterion's DVD of Scenes From a Marriage includes both the original TV show and the edited-down version released theatrically in the United States. I feel rooked. This is what they were getting overseas. Meanwhile, everyone here was holding forth about the profundity of Norman Lear's sitcoms.
The TV show's title doesn't just mean "incidents from a marriage." It implies marriage as a staged show. At the beginning of Scenes From a Marriage, Johan and Marianne are being interviewed for a newspaper lifestyle piece about what a success their marriage has been. "Look as if you're fond of one another," says the reporter as she sets them up for a photograph.
Seeing Johan and Marianne when they were young prepares us for the bitterness in Saraband. When the aged Marianne tells Karin that there is no possibility that a woman of today could be as trusting as she was when she was a young wife, we know that she is telling the truth.
The 1974 Johan and Marianne reveal only slight flashes of discontent. When the split between them comes, it is abrupt. At their summer cottage, Johan announces he is in love with a younger woman. "I've wanted to be rid of you for four years," he tells Marianne; then he drops a Strindberg quote: "Could there be anything worse than a husband and wife who hate each other?"
Bergman's TV series exemplifies what Ambrose Bierce said of marriage. Rather than making two people one, it makes two people four: two masters and two slaves.
In Scenes From a Marriage, Ullmann plays Marianne as plain: pie-faced, with swept-back, split-ends-ridden hair, gowned in the earth-toned kaftans popular in the day. She is faintly bovine, but Johan's emotional savagery unleashes something strong in her. Before the marital struggle in Scenes From a Marriage, she could be motherly or childish, as acquiescent as a pudding. In later episodes, she is almost a Valkyrie.
The older Marianne of Saraband is wiser, but she is also fragile. Everyone in her life has drifted away. And in the echoing silence of her old age, she imagines that she has heard a psychic call from her former mate.
You can defend the younger Johan's cruelty and suggest that his ruthless honesty burst the hermetically sealed bubble that trap husband and wife. The TV series even ends in something of an upbeat way: no longer needing or hating one another, Johan and Marianne become sleepover friends.
The 1974 edition of Johan is a little comic, with his thick glasses and a pipein his era, academics brandished pipes like kings brandished scepters. In Saraband, despite the tremor in his right hand and his ruined nude body, Johan is not quaint anymore.
Released from his sex drive and the needs of his children, he is free to desiccate himself in his music and his Kierkegaard. Marianne, stung by Johan's verbal cruelty, calls him "a forgotten character from a stupid old film." (I don't know which one she means; it probably stars Lionel Barrymore.)
But in Saraband, the poison isn't between husband and wife; it's intergenerational. Henrik twinkles as he describes how he'd love to see his father die slowly. Johan is open about how his son has disgusted him from the beginning. Marianne can only try to draw them back from their wounding folly. And she tries to help Karin, contended for between the unnatural father and his warped son.
Rarely can a director pick up a thread from 30 years ago and connect it to something living today. Fortunately, Bergman has made progressin the richness of visual imagery, in dramatic emphasis and in amendment of his old ideas.
Saraband isn't a sad throwback to past greatness. Instead it's a serene, fresh work, assured and open-minded. Bergman must be the exact opposite of Johan. He assures us that female strength will always overcome the male urge to possess and control.

Vintage: | 2006 |
Wine Type: | Medium Red Wine |
Appellation: | Arroyo Seco |
Harvest Date: | 2006 |
Acid: | .58G/100ML |
Fermentation: | French and American Oak |
Bottling Date: | 2008 |
Alcohol %: | 13.5 |
The Ventana is a 400+acre vineyard in the heart of the Arroyo Seco American Viticultural Area, Monterey County California. The soil is primarily a calcareous composition of alluvial deposit with rock and gravel that support excellent drainage.
The Italian words "Due Amici" translated to English mean, "Two Friends". This is a unique blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese (Brunello clone). Doug Meador was first shown the marvelous relationship between these two long ago in Italy – even though Cabernet was not "authorized" in Tuscany then. We have deliberately avoided the "international" style which veers heavily on Cabernet, preferring the cherry charm of the Sangiovese blossoming above the Cabernet foundation. The 2001 version was the number one blended red wine of America in 2004, so it appears others like it as well. We have planted a little more "Sangio" but this will always be a very limited wine.

Hi Maxwell,
I have a combination of open (for dishes) and closed (for food) shelving in my kitchen, and I think it looks pretty swell. You probably saw it in my AT home tour earlier this year, but here are links to the photos:
Looking forward to the feature -- I'm a big fan of open shelving (for attractive things, at least)!
Take care, Anna

Crock-Pot Cheesy Pierogi Lasagne
Okay, this is not really lunch - but it could be - it makes yummy leftovers! :)
So good to come home to! This savoury casserole's layers of pasta, potatoes & cheese are reminiscent of pierogies, mmm. It goes great with polish sausage - or with breakfast sausage - you can make it the night before to wake up to :)
1 - Boil potatoes & pasta.
2 - While they cook, sautée onions in ½ lb butter, until golden, and set aside.
3 - Drain & rinse pasta, set aside.
4 - Drain potatoes, mash with milk (or cream) and remaining ½ lb butter.
5 - If desired, add other potato add-ins of choice. I add minced garlic, salt & pepper, grated parmesan and a handful of shredded sharp cheddar.
9 - Cover and cook on low all day or on high if you tend to start late, like me :)
Bon Apétit!
Oven Option
Layer ingredients in deep dish lasagne pan or casserole dish, lightly sprayed with cooking oil. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 30 minutes or until top is as browned as you like :) - OR - Refrigerate until ready to bake. Cover with foil. (To prevent sticking, spray foil with cooking spray, or make sure it does not touch the cheese.) Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 30 minutes, remove foil, and bake an additional 15-30 minutes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Baltic blue dinnerware from Great coordinates! I have purchased several place settings of Baltic blue dinnerware and several of the Paola Navone blue pattern dishes. They are so much fun to mix and match. My guests always comment on the combinations I put together. And they look great with the bright apple green napkins!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Elegant and Stylish! The colors in my small apartment are mahoghany, cream, and blue (with red accents). I wanted something to carry these colors into my tiny kitchen. This blends beautifully, is elegant and stylish. It also makes my meals look inviting and perhaps more delicious :) It can carry from ordinary to special dinners too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SuzieQ from A Winner! A couple of months ago my husband and I purchased the small bowls and salad plates for a particular occasion. We love them so much that we now plan to purchase much more of the overall set. These dishes are so beautifully designed and creatively cast that they conform to the hand when held, and tell us that nature is nobble-y and filled with surprises. The cobalt color is a burst of sunshine that always makes me smile. It's a treat to find a product that's both substantial and beautiful in one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by lydia from food looks great on these plates Food looks so appetizing on these dark colored plates. I can't wait to use them for Thanksgiving-- the sweet potatoes and green beans will really be beautiful on them. They are sturdy, and have been through the dishwasher many times--luckily, I haven't noticed any fading as another reviewer reported. I bought the pasta bowls as well, and use them together a lot, and with some hand thrown pieces that they look perfect with.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Woz14 from Beautiful! I love the look of this set. I like the irregular shape of each plate and bowl.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Wendifer68 from Beautiful color Bought this set a few months ago & the brilliant blue color is gorgeous. Also love that the set is not perfectly shaped. The only things I dislike are the C&B logo is washing off and the color appears to fade a bit on the spots that are scrubbed, as I only hand wash these.
Date published: 2014-10-29
Rated 5 out of 5 by Christy from Wonderful quality I am so happy with these dishes. They are very sturdy, no chips in over a month of use and some hard knocks on granite counter tops. The sizes work well in the dishwasher and being a pottery lover, the hand made appearance is a pleasure with each use.
Date published: 2014-07-03
Rated 5 out of 5 by Poppyseed1234 from Look Great on the Table I bought these before Thanksgiving to replace some of similar color. I love the handmade look and the cobalt is striking and the slightly uneven finish gives it depth. They are sturdy and do not chip, can take some banging around. Highly recommend.

HBD-Nesta Robert Marley,February 6, 1945 BitchesBrew
WORST SOAP The Young and the Restless � The number one soap was a number one bummer throughout most of 2012, with lackluster stories, fan favorites thrown into the mix who were wasted, yes, Debbi Morgan, Darnell Williams, Genie Francis, what was the point? Genoa City was a snoozy town in 2012. MOST DISAPPOINTING SOAP The Young and the Restless � The reason this is most disappointing because it has such A-list talent attached to it, that it was hard to watch the bad storytelling and the entire cast trying to make it work. They did their best, but Y&R was still hard to invest in it. WORST STORYLINE The bizarre antics and character shift of Sharon Newman � The Young and the Restless � Talk about bi-polar! This storyline was up and down and all over the place! Sharon Case had the task of trying to keep up with the writer�s decimating her character. Thank God, she is a good enough actress to survive this nonsense! BEST RECURRING PERFORMER Jeff Branson as Ronan � The Young and the Restless � Everyone is clamoring for Branson to return to Genoa City, because this Daytime Emmy winner, is just that damn good! BEST RUINATION OF A CHARACTER Neil Winters, The Young and the Restless � How many women can they throw this business man in one calendar year? Did anyone of them work? What is his storyline? MOST IRRITATING CHARACTER Sharon Newman � The Young and the Restless � Even though Sharon Case did an amazing job with the material she was given, let�s look at this character: Sharon marrying Victor, being with Adam, all the men, burning down the house of Newman, and on and on. How could we like this once beloved heroine and character, without feeling irritated? BEST NEWCOMER MALE Robert Adamson as Noah Newman � The Young and the Restless � Noah�s come and Noah�s go, we think this one will stick! Handsome, charming and he can act BEST PSYCHO: Peter Porte as Ricky Williams � The Young and the Restless � Porte changed our minds about him, as he delivered performances that were psychotic and scary. Great job! All the Above Listings come from On Air Soaps Best & Worst List Edited by lightandday, Jan 1 2013, 04:10 PM.

Comments Thread For: Ricky Burns Fires Up The Crowd With Glasgow Stoppage
By Cliff Rold - A hotly anticipated all U.K. Lightweight showdown turned into a showcase for a fighter clearly at his stride. In front of a red-hot home team crowd in Glasgow, Scotland, 29-year old Ricky Burns (35-2, 10 KO) of Coatbridge, Scotland, scored a pounding of 27-year old Kevin Mitchell (33-2, 24 KO) of Dagenham, Essex, at the Scottish Exhibition Center on Saturday at 2:59 of the fourth round.
Burns successfully defended the WBO belt for the second time since receiving full title recognition following an interim title win over Michael Katsidis in November 2011. It was the third knockout in seven title fights for Burns dating to his reign a WBO titlist at Jr. Lightweight from 2010-11. It was the 20th win in a row for Burn overall, both of his defeats coming by decision in 2006 and 07. Mitchell has now been stopped in both of his defeats, knocked out in three previously by Katsidis. Burns had rebounded from the Katsidis loss with two victories and goes back to the drawing board.

Manufacturer: The Australian Stock Saddle Co
Model: Bronco Poley w/ Horn
Category: All Purpose Saddles
Purchase: I recently purchased my new Bronco Poley saddle for $595 direct from the Australian Stock Saddle Co. I recently bought a horse for myself to use for team penning, and ranch sorting, as well as trail riding. Due to distance, I was unable to visit his stable personally when evaluating if he would be a good horse for me or not; but did my best to get as many pictures and videos as possible. When my horse arrived I discovered that he is very compact and built like a tank. I found my old western ranch style saddle was just too big for him. I began my search for a good saddle to fit a short backed mutton withered horse to fill our need. I found many custom saddle makers offerings that would cost me thousands of dollars that either I don't have, or don't wish to pay. Then I came across the Bronco Poley. I had a number of conversations with Mr. Colin Dangaard of the Australian Stock Saddle Co. He highly recommended that I try his Bronco Poley. Using his instruction, I sent the wither tracings for them to check against their saddle. If needed, the Aussie Stock Saddle Co. can adjust their saddles to fit your horse. The extra charge is a minor $150. Mr. Dangaard checked my tracings against his Bronco Poley and found that no modifications were needed. As a bonus for me, he happened to have a Bronco Poley with horn in my size and in all black, which is rare as they are normally a rich dark oil color with black seat and poleys. The black Bronco Poley saddle looks outstanding on my bay horse.
Likes: My saddle arrived very well packed for shipping. I removed it from it's shipping materials with a feeling of a kid at Christmas. I buffed down the saddle with a clean cloth and found the leather is very soft and pliable. Having given the folks at the Australian Stock Saddle company all of the measurements for my horse and myself, I was happy to see that there was really no need to adjust anything once I saddled my horse. The girth system and stirrup length was all exactly where it should be.
Dislikes: I have to think hard about what I don't like about this saddle, as I really like everything about it. Any minor changes I could offer would only add to the cost and offer no improvements to the functionality of this saddle.
Quality: The saddle weighs about 25lbs fully rigged. The skirting and fenders are a nice quality of leather that is very soft and pliable. The seat is a fine grained leather and has a very luxurious soft texture with a nice cushion underneath. Footman loops and Dees for using either an Aussie breastplate or a western breastcollar exist, providing plenty of options. If one needs it, there is also a crupper ring built into the back as well. The rigging is a 7/8 In-Skirt D style with a rear D. The saddle could be set up in a standard front cinch w/buckstrap or centerfire rigging. Given my needs and my horse's measurements, Mr. Dangaard felt it best to centerfire rig the girth system using his Tackaberry cinch rigging. This is very convenient and easy to use. The saddle hardware is an antique brass color, again with ample loops for attaching bags and accessories for the trail. The horn is optional and sets at a good height. While it is not there for roping purposes, it does provide one, who has spent years in a western saddle, that feeling of comfort to have something there to grab onto if needed. The tree is a fiberglass tree and the stirrup leathers go over the bars in the same manner that most western saddles do. There are ample number of holes in the stirrup leathers for adjustment in height. A blevins type buckle system is used for adjustment. The fender/stirrup leathers are also reinforced with a nylon web strap backing. For the money, this is a high quality, well built hybrid Aussie/Western saddle. Measurements are done using Australian style measurement so add about 2" to your western saddle seat length.
Summary: I took my new saddle and horse out and tested it, in the ranch sorting ring, spending the day moving cows. I had a feeling of having close contact to my horse, and could feel him better through the soft leather fenders, than those of any saddle that I have ever ridden in with any other horse. The 17" seat is a perfect fit for me and the poleys offer a nice sense of security. Through some quick turns I found myself well seated and right with my quick little cow horse. The minimal rounded skirting gives my short backed horse ample room in the hips offering more flexibility. The angle of the bars are a perfect match for the shape of his back. After our workout, I found the sweat pattern to be even even and normal in shape.
I have placed this review in the "All Purpose Saddle" type context as I feel it is really an all purpose saddle. Given its weight and dimensions it could be used for endurance. Given its strength and security, it can be used for campdrafting, team penning or ranch sorting. Given its hardware and weight, it will make a great trail saddle. If one decides to buy one of these saddles, bear in mind, once you own one, you will need to answer a lot of "what is that?" and "why do you have that?" type of questions from those who may be either lesser informed or more narrow of mind when it comes to equestrian gear. I have to grin at the brass plate mounted on the cantle. It reads "Bronco Poley perfected in Australia". I see that as an honest and true statement. I highly recommend The Australian Stock Saddle Co. Bronco Poley saddle and the outstanding services of Mr. Colin Dangaard and his crew. They care highly about both your horse and you and making sure you both ride safe and sound.

Minor uses, which include the majority of specialty crops, are the uses of pesticides where the potential use is not large to justify it's registration from an applicant's perspective alone. A key driver for minor uses can be the lack of economic return to an applicant from the registration of those uses. In particular, the associated costs of generating the data required for obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval and potential liability from those uses once approved.
Typically minor uses involve crops grown on a small scale (minor crops) and often are high value specialty crops. Additionally, minor uses can involve uses within major crops in terms of controlling minor pests and diseases. This results in a situation where specialty crop industries are either without or are lacking sufficient access to pest control products to adequately protect those crops. The major factor hindering the regulatory approval of minor uses is a lack of data that is largely attributable to a lack of funding required to generate data.
As there is no internationally accepted definition for minor uses, they are therefore quite often defined as:
In 2009, the OECD published a Guidance Document on Defining Minor Uses of Pesticides (Series on Pesticides No. 49). The document that provides guidance on defining minor uses of pesticides at local or regional levels with the aim of enhancing the consistency between countries in the methods used for defining minor uses. It is limited to guidance for defining minor uses of pesticides only and does not provide an OECD definition. It states that "Minor use definitions serve as an important mechanism to ensuring that minor uses that are required by agricultural producers are appropriately regulated and where applicable include mechanisms that reduce the regulatory burden and are complemented by providing regulatory incentives to enhance their registration."
As there is no one internationally or OECD accepted definition for minor uses, the criteria and guidelines for determining what constitutes a minor use varies amongst member countries.
It is largely determined by one or two key factors:
Minor use classifications are used to provide guidance on the number of trials required; incentives to encourage their registration (i.e. reduced assessment fees/timeframes); and qualification under grower requested registration or off-label schemes.
Since 2007, the OECD Pesticides Programme has been developing tools to facilitate minor use registration and examining mechanisms associated with minor uses in the areas of cooperation, technical and policy. Consistent with the OECD's 'Vision for the Future: a global approach to the regulation of agricultural pesticides,' and through the co-operation of OECD member countries working with relevant stakeholders, the OECD facilitates:
In 2009 two surveys were carried out:
Following the latter survey, a Guidance Document on Regulatory Incentives for the Registration of Pesticide Minor Uses was published. It provides guidance to national regulatory authorities in providing greater incentives to encourage applicants (manufacturers/registrants) to register agricultural pesticides (including both synthetically and naturally derived products) for minor uses. It lists existing regulatory incentives available in a number of countries and suggests additional possible new incentives that could be explored to encourage the registration of specialty crop or minor use needs. It discusses the various different aspects of incentives that are typically utilised including:

Click here to print the obituary below
Mary Jane "Mim" Helfrich
BANGOR AND FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif. - Mary Jane "Mim" Helfrich died Monday, Jan. 28, 2013, at her home in Bar Harbor, with family at her side. Mim was born Mary Jane Sullivan in October 1937, to parents, Cornelius J. Sullivan and Jane Murphy Sullivan of Hampden. She was a fourth generation Mainer.
Her father owned and operated Sullivan Ford Sales, Bangor, for more than 30 years. Mim attended Bangor High School;
University of Michigan
; University of Maine, Orono; and Maxim's Cooking School, Paris. In May 1961, she married William Peter Helfrich in Bangor, and together they raised seven children. Beginning at age 17, Mim was an active member of Junior League of Bangor and Orange County, Calif. She was involved in every aspect of her children's young lives, taking active and leadership roles in parent-teacher associations, church youth groups, scouting and school organizations. She was a lifelong Democrat, who volunteered at the polls for every possible election in heavily Republican Orange County, Calif., and lobbied for education-related causes in the 1970s. She applied her exceptional culinary and organizational skills to various charitable causes, including South Coast Repertory Theater, Orange County Museum of Natural History and Maryknoll, and could whip-up hors d'oeuvres for 200 in a matter of hours. She played bridge with good friends weekly for most of her life and would never step out of a car without checking her lipstick. Mim was very proud of all of her children and as they became adults, devoted her time to traveling around the U.S. among college campuses and big cities where her children had settled. She had an exceptional heart and always made room in her life for family, extended family, friends, friends of friends, children of friends, and even a handful of foreign exchange students and stray cousins. She was very much loved, and in her latest years maintained an extraordinarily positive outlook on life in the face of incredible adversity.
She was predeceased by her former husband, Pete Helfrich; and son, William Peter Helfrich Jr., both of whom served as naval officers, as did her father. Mim is survived by her children, Katherine Alice Helfrich and partner, Emilie Simmons, of Sacramento, Calif., Jennifer Jane Dickinson and husband, Ian R. Dickinson, brigadier general, U.S. Air Force, retired, of Lorton, Va., E. Martha Searchfield and husband, Timothy "Tim" Searchfield, lieutenant, U.S. Coast Guard, retired, of Bar Harbor, Gretchen Elizabeth Helfrich of Chicago, Samuel Paul Helfrich of New York City and Stephanie J. Helfrich White and husband, Carl White, of Mill Valley, Calif. Mim is also survived by her four grandchildren, Nathaniel J. Dickinson, 20, of Hampshire College, Magdelaine E. Dickinson, 18, of Wellesley College, Harris Hale White, 4, and Spencer Jane White, 2.
A Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated 11 a.m. Tuesday, Feb. 5, at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church, Ledgelawn Avenue, Bar Harbor, with the Rev. Jack O'Hara, pastor, celebrant. The family has asked that those who wish to remember Mim in a special way may make gifts in her memory to Girl Scouts of Maine at
or Bangor Service Center, 359 Perry Road, Suite B, Bangor, ME 04401; or Mount Desert Island YMCA at
or 21 Park St., Bar Harbor, ME 04609. Condolences to the family may be expressed at

It was a day which will remain etched in the mind of Prasad, the man who was behind the wheels when the Metropolitan Transport Corporation Limited (MTC) bus (17 M) fell from the ramp on the Gemini flyover. Nearly a fortnight after the accident, he says he in fact saved the lives of passengers and that he was not on the phone when the accident occured.
Speaking to The Hindu on the phone, Prasad sounded confident when he said "I was not speaking on the phone when the accident took place," he said. His version is that, when he was taking a turn on the ramp, the seat moved and he lost his balance. "The nut and bolt became loose. But I kept a hold on the steering wheel and made sure my legs were on the brake."
Once the bus hit the railing, he ensured that the speed was under control. "The vehicle was descending slowly and it was towards the end that it fell on its right side. It did not topple upside down," Prasad said. He said his legs were caught in the gear wire and hot oil fell on his leg.
"An auto driver was helping the passengers to get out. I took my cell phone and managed to jump out. I looked for the conductor and found that he was already out," he said.
According to Prasad, he and the conductor decided to approach the nearest police station and submit a report. "By then, people had gathered and were shouting. The fire engine also reached immediately," he said.
Prasad says the bus was damaged only after the wrecker vehicles were used to pull the bus. "They are small and old. It is not possible to lift a huge bus. I was watching the operation on television at the police station. It was during this time that the bus was damaged," said Prasad.
But how are his colleagues and family reacting after he was involved in such an accident?
"My colleagues said that I saved a lot of lives by driving slowly on the slope and ensuring the vehicle did not topple. Similar is the reaction from the family," he said.
Prasad has an experience of 10 years in driving MTC buses. "The MTC administration has given us their findings on the accident. They have claimed that Prasad drove in a rash and negligent manner. The bus cannot be driven fast on Gemini flyover due to the traffic," said K. Natarajan, general secretary of MTC Employees Progressive Union

Spouse correlations in cardiovascular risk factors and the effect of marriage duration. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 8533746 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Spouse correlations in cardiovascular risk factors were investigated using data on 2,836 spouse pairs collected in the Busselton Population Health Surveys over the period 1966-1981. The risk factors considered were systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, body mass index, triceps fatfold, cholesterol, and forced expiratory volume (1 second). Statistically significant positive correlations (p < 0.01) were found for all (age-adjusted) variables. There was a statistically significant decreasing trend in the correlations for systolic blood pressure with marriage duration (trend p < 0.01). Although no other variables showed statistically significant trends, the correlations for diastolic blood pressure (p = 0.29), body mass index (p = 0.14), and forced expiratory volume (p = 0.16) also decreased with marriage duration, and correlations for cholesterol (p = 0.61) and triceps fatfold (p = 0.99) increased with marriage duration. These results suggest that there is spousal concordance in cardiovascular risk factors. The lack of consistent increasing trends in the correlations with marriage duration suggests that assortative mating may be a more likely explanation than the sharing of a common environment. |

Taekwang Jeongsan Country Club
Taekwang Jeongsan Country Club Description:
(interesting course on an island in Saigon River)
Taekwang Jeongsan Country Club is location on its own island in the Saigon River. Travel to the Saigon golf course requires golfers to travel out of the city on Vietnam's main north-south highway and take a ferry across the Saigon River. All in it takes around 90 minute to reach the golf course from the main hotel districts in Ho Chi Minh City.
The 18-hole Korean owned course was developed by Ron Fream's Golf plan Company from the USA. The tips stretch out to over 7500 yards. The length together with heavy bunkering throughout makes the golf course a challenge even for the most serious professional golfers. Conditions are good and playing the Out (Sun Course) and In (Moon Course) ends up an overall enjoyable day out golfing in Saigon.
The massive clubhouse forms the anchor for planned residential and commercial areas, which are designated to surround the course.
Taekwang Jeongsan Country Club is the third golf course put into operation in Dong Nai Golf. The other two are Long Thanh Golf Resort and Song May Golf Courses located in Trang Bom Town.
Taekwang Jeongsan Country Club that is opening in Dong Nai in Vietnam will become the best high quanlity golf resort in Vietnam by introducing advanced system of Korea
It is also the second South Korean-invested golf course in the southern region, after Twin Doves Golf Club in Binh Duong.
The Taekwang Jeongsan Club House includes a luxury lobby that is fitted with the members. The Locker rooms have about four-dozen half-day-lockers that fit our active membership just right. The 18th hole serves as multipurpose room for business meetings. The spacious golf shop carries all of the top names in the industry and can take care of all of your golf needs.
The atmosphere of the Taekwang Jeongsan Club House is well suited to our membership and begins with the fireplace in the lounge as your first walk in to this beautiful building. The most popular areas of the clubhouse always seems to be our fabulous deck with its breathtaking views and refreshing breeze, it emphasizes what our club is all about. As you will see and feel, our clubhouse is an extension of our philosophy of a comfortable, casual, relaxing, and fun atmosphere. Another home for our members.

Public assist. A man called police about his son's school bus dropping him off at home and not his baby sitter's. The man said this has happened before and requested criminal charges be brought against the bus company and school district. An officer advised that it wasn't a criminal issue but said he'd follow up with both.
Disturbance. A 61-year-old man was cited for disorderly conduct after reportedly becoming upset that the movie playing at Carmike Cinemas, 1188 Helmo Av., shut off before ending. The report said he became verbally abusive, knocking things over and going into the box office and concession areas.
Theft. A woman stole $130 worth of scratch-off lotto tickets from behind the counter at SuperAmerica, 7570 10th St., while another woman distracted the clerk by asking for help in the rear of the store.
Traffic stop. A deputy pulled over a vehicle with a broken taillight in the 200 block of Kindross Road. The driver was arrested when it was discovered his license had been suspended, he had no proof of insurance and the vehicle's registration was expired. Also found on him were meth and a pipe.
Suspicious circumstance/Trespassing. A woman was observed putting items in a duffel bag at Wal-Mart, 10240 Hudson Road Apparently after seeing a police officer in the store the woman dumped out the bag. An officer then approached her and explained why her behavior was suspicious. She signed a trespass form and was escorted out of the store.
Items are selected from reports made to police departments and are not intended to provide a comprehensive picture of crime.

First cup of the new year! I hope that everyone had a very enjoyable time last night! :)
smell: roasty, green peas, very slight floral
flavor: This is a very bright, sweet brew. This, as I've said before, is my favorite green tea. The smell of the dry leaf is almost overpoweringly wonderful. They are also very beautiful! I love this tea and it completely lacks astringency or bitterness.

I sit this early morning in a hotel room in Boone, North Carolina. I will work here for the next two days. Today is a day in schools and a public library event. Tomorrow I will keynote the Appalachian State University Children's Literature Symposium and work with teachers throughout the day -- exciting!
This fall has been full of travels, and I am overdue on some October thanks. Thanks so much to Mikey Jones at Powhatan Elementary in Boyce, Virginia; Kathy Crane and Joy Simpkins and all those who brought me to W.G. Coleman Elementary in The Plains, Virginia; Carole Butler and her intrepid team at Moorestown Middle School; and Bev Grazioli, Carol Herb, and the Home & School team that brought me to Moorestown, New Jersey's Upper Elementary School -- amazing, insightful days of teaching and learning.
Here you'll see teachers modeling for their students in assembly, teachers telling their own stories in workshop, students writing away in assembly, and projects using Deborah Wiles' books as a jumping off point, and more.
Every school has its own flavor, needs, goals, and atmosphere. Every journey has its distinct differences as well. Yesterday I drove into the Blue Ridge Mountains as the falling leaves swirled in masses all around me. I took the winding mountain roads as the rain began to fall and the fog crept in, and the dark seeped into the day.
Today I go out into the sunlight to meet new people, see new faces, work with new students and teachers, and discover new stories. And, as always, it's about the stories. Always about the stories.

well done you magnificent fugers. i had a couple of very generous people offer me a ticket to the game, but i had to decline due to hosting a huge party at my house. all of us got super drunk and despite zoning out to dumb things like volume, we all noticed how goddamn freaking loud it was during the entire game. charlotte repped and we love you all.
Had a New Year party at my house as well....... but we all watched the game and roared and screamed throughout it

For many years, my wife and I invite family, friends and neighbors to an open house party to celebrate the New Year (tradition we brought to the US when we moved here from Amsterdam 20 years ago). Typically the party is on January 1st, but this year we decided for a number of reasons, to have it on the 3rd. We sent out invites many weeks ago not realizing/anticipating that the Panthers would play a Play-off Game that day at 4:35 PM. On the invite it says that we open our doors at 4:00 PM....... Guess what, instead of the party music it will be PANTHERS FOOTBALL for the first few hours.... (whether they like it or not) .

LOL. My wife said it wasn't right for that guy to knock the ball out of that other guys hand (J.Norman). You can't just go around knocking balls out of their hands. I told her she was adorable too.
I wish my wife would actually watch a game with me .......... oh, and she is not adorable at all (but I still love her though)

It's easy to forget about those plays. Carolina could have easily lost to Tampa Bay without several things falling their way.
Yes, but they did not lose. That is how is works in sports, buddy. There were other games this year that we could have won if a thing or two had gone our way .......

These don't look like fedora packages. Often programs are packaged differently in fedora repos than say, ubuntu/mint repos.
Very often package names are a little bit different, for example: libncurses-dev if you do "yum search ncurses" you will find: ncurses-devel.i686 : Development files for the ncurses library
you can either try to search for by main package name, or if you know which files you need you can try search by those, or look for requirements for yum/fedora if that fails you can simply try google: how to install <package> in fedora
[–]Divided_Pi[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
is ncurses.dev in fedora the same as libncurses-dev? is the lib prefex what tipped you off? I guess, are the packages I'm missing available for fedora? and a program requiring them, would it be able to find them without too much trouble? Or would have have to figure out how to point the program to the different packages?
[–]vipergreek 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Is the repository enabled? You can look in yum.conf or /var/yum.repos.d/*.repo for enabled=1.
If you know the repository name you can do yum install --enablerepo=<name> on command line.

Those words from African-American cowboy Matthew "Bones" Hooks sum up the history of the Texas Panhandle's third oldest town. While Mobeetie and Tascosa scraped out an existence surrounded by the roughest trappings of the Old West, Clarendon's purpose was to bring civilization to the wilderness.
Many of the territory's oldest churches are here, Hooks himself helped organize the area's first black church in Clarendon, the first doctor lived here, and the first college was established here. But before all that, there was the Panhandle's first newspaper – The Clarendon News.

Atmospheric turbulence effects measured along horizontal-path optical retro-reflector links |
Applied Optics, Vol. 51, Issue 25, pp. 6147-6158 (2012)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1872 KB)
The scintillation measured over close-to-ground retro-reflector links can be substantially enhanced due to the correlations experienced by both the direct and reflected echo beams. Experiments were carried out at China Lake, California, over a variety of ranges. The emphasis in this paper is on presenting the data from the 1.1 km retro-reflecting link that was operated for four consecutive days. The dependence of the measured irradiance flux variance on the solar fluence and on the temperature gradient above the ground is presented. The data are consistent with scintillation minima near sunrise and sunset, rising rapidly during the day and saturating at irradiance flux variances of

Robert E. Shalhope
George Lynn Cross Professor of HistoryAfter graduating from DePauw University I attended the University of Missouri where I received an M.A. and a Ph.D. in history in 1967. I have taught at the University of Oklahoma since that time and was named a George Lynn Cross Research Professor of History in 1991.
My primary research and teaching interests are in American political culture throughout the period 1760-1876. I have published essays in various journals, including the Journal of Southern History, the William and Mary Quarterly, and the Journal of American History, on various manifestations of political thought in the Revolutionary and early national period. In addition, I have published several books on related topics. The latest is Bennington and the Green Mountain Boys: The Emergence of Liberalism in Vermont, 1763-1850 (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1996). I am currently writing a biography of an ordinary farmer who lived in Bennington, Vermont, during the years 1788-1839.Throughout the course of my career I have held fellowships at Harvard University's Charles Warren Center for the Study of American History, the American Antiquarian Society, and from the National Endowment for the Humanities. In 1997 I was elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society.
Graduate Instruction
I have directed theses and dissertations on a variety of topics. Currently I have two masters students working in the Civil War period and one doctoral student writing on the emergence of liberal thought in New Brunswick in the early nineteenth century and another doctoral student writing a biography of the Shaw family of Boston.I teach an undergraduate course on the Civil War Era, as well as undergraduate seminars on assorted topics on American History from 1760-1860. I also teach a graduate seminar on Early American History.

Here's a little video of Graham trying to use the set-up, as you can see he hasn't be spent enough time training his brain,… which is vital so that we can match the brain waves. As you can see this tech is still pretty sketchy as it takes a lot of practice and even then it doesn't always do what you want, it's a constantly evolving /refining process.

Just a reminder to anyone reading along that the demo videos were faked. There are technical observations anyone can make to confirm this. For example, the SpeakJet chip isn't connected to anything, and the voltage levels (if any) from the sensors would be insufficient for the Arduino A/D converters.

these guys are good....everything went smooth...my part arrived one day earlier than I expected. One hour after I ordered this part I thought I didn't need it. I called them and they had already picked the part and shipped it. All within one hour of me ordering the part on line. Thankfully I needed the part anyway but boy what a fast turnaround. I'll do business with these people again.
Very pleased with the service. The part I ordered arrived so quickly I didn't even have time to think about when it would get here. I would highly recommend this web site and company to friends and family.
